Abstraction layers. They are so detached from everyone else through abstraction layers that we’re nothing more than D2 NPC character sheets to them. That’s why when a Luigi, alegedly, breaks through all of the abstraction layers and brings a leaded reality check to these fucking parasites they double down on palantir like projects to keep themselves safe while making the state even more oppressive and invasive of everyone’s privacy.

In the past decade, PC hobbyists have been the victims of the latest group of regards “getting the bag”. Crypto 1.0, 2.0 and now AI. It’s the biggest fool theory doing its thing. I fucking hate tech bros and crypto bros. They are the huma race’s macro analogy for cancer cells.

20 and 80 seems about the right parallel, they both vote for fascists in droves so it kinda checks out. I’d wager the level of idiocy is neck and neck.

- Comment on This is Jared Birchall. He is the right-hand man of Elon Musk. He also manages his wealth. Jared hates when people see his face. 6 days ago:
They should have blurred the kids’ faces, 100% not open for debate.
Nevertheless, these “think of the children” guys calling out OP are all too happy to only think of the white children. Musks USAID attack has resulted in thousands of deaths, including children. Let that hipocrisy sink in.
- Comment on AI is not killing jobs, US study finds - Financial Times 1 week ago:
AI is a cover for the delocalization of 1000s of jobs that now can be done in the 3rd world with the help of language models to make up for the language deficits of local populace. Several pharma, auto and IT services have now been moved to India and the layoffs given the cover of “economic headwinds”. I.e. Bosh is killing thousands of jobs in Germany but hiring thousands in India!? In the past year alone BOSCH India hired over 1000 people in India for the same class of jobs they are now extinguishing in Germany.
These CEOs should be hunted like animals, they keep ruining entire lives in the hunt for a bump in profits.

- Comment on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang complains about stock price slide during all-hands meeting — says market did not appreciate company’s ‘incredible’ quarter 1 week ago:
What I heard from scientists is experiments need validation, I say we need power in our experimental setup to verify claims. Jensen says he is holding the planet together, so, let’s eliminate Jensen and his next 5 in command in NVIDIA, n=6, and see if the planet breaks down. As a control, we cull Musk and his next 5 in command in Tesla and SpaceX. If the planet doesn’t break down, we start doing it internationally to billionaires till there’s a sign of a breakdown so we find out, empirically, how many billionaires are needed to support the planet. If we run out of billionaires before the planet breaks down, then the conclusion is the planet doesn’t need billionaires. Who else wants to do science?

The US civil rights movement was driven by the European diaspora running away from the destroyed infrastructure of Europe and WWII GIs that were treated more humanely while at war than back home.

Pearls to pigs my friend, pearls to pigs.
If there’s one bad thing about modern medicine and living in an outsized society is that intelligence is no longer evolutionarily beneficial. We are artificially selecting morons and the latest pisa results are the canary in the coal mine for the idiocracy we’re heading to.
Thank you for your efforts in demystifying these fucking ads in the form of breakthroughs that have these insufferable morons thinking “AI” can now do research.

Sonkey Kong is such an outlier as GOTY. They frequently need a nintendo game there to please the basement dwellers but still, Hades, HKSs and mainly ClairObscure are so far above DK it’s almost insulting seeing them together in the same category.

This is the usual front to further develop “designer baby” tech (which we already have, it’s just the use is considered unethical). Mask investment as “saving the children” and altruistic to later flip the tech to billionaire friends so they can make little aryans on a d5 roll for a an AC of 1… Much like the open that turned for profit…

- Comment on New battery life record: This CPU makes the best known business laptop more efficient 1 week ago:
still haven’t found a way to properly test multitasking.
And my point is the 3700x performs well in multicore CPU loads, lunar lake, likely less so, when taking the benches in consideration. This reflects in its multitasking capability.
- Comment on New battery life record: This CPU makes the best known business laptop more efficient 1 week ago:
Let’s see: Blender, for the BMW27 the 3700x is ~30% faster.
In notebookcheck’s own site, you can add a 3700x test (together with a Vega64) and see that outside of single core synthetic results, in every multi-core real world scenario, the 3700x trounces the Lunar lake CPU, even though it’s several nodes behind in density (7nm vs 3nm) and it is 6 years older, has much less memory bandwidth.
I highly doubt the 238v is faster than the 3700x at anything other than browsing the web or other single core loads…

You’re being purposefully dense, it’s missing a comma.
- Comment on New battery life record: This CPU makes the best known business laptop more efficient 1 week ago:
Oh look, the OP that posted the ad doubles down on the false expectations published in the ad.
Lunar lake guzzles energy when using several programs at the time and performs worse that even Arrow lake in the battery department once this is the case. If you put a lid on it and use the low perf mode, you revert to performance from half a decade ago. At that point one is much better served by a macbook air. The only saving grace of lunar lake is the performant, low power iGPU. The single reason to use an x86 laptop is compatibility with professional software like catya etc, Lunar lake is trash tier in anything remotely useful, which begs the question: why would anyone choose Lunar Lake over snapdragon or Mx laptops then?
- Comment on New battery life record: This CPU makes the best known business laptop more efficient 1 week ago:
Yes, it’s an ad. Basically the Lunar Lake option is a high perf single core CPU that is pretty bad for anything other than checking emails and web browsing. We’re in 2025 and outlets still haven’t found a way to properly test multitasking.
